As mass produced ceramic capacitor products move to low-cost manufacturing regions, ceramic capacitor manufacturers in Japan, Korea, China, USA, Germany, UK and France must re-evaluate their existing production facilities in high-cost regions, and reposition their product portfolios to address markets that will remain localized. The majority of these markets require value-added and application-specific ceramic capacitors that can operate under high reliability specifications and in harsh environments. This market study sheds light on the fragmented, low volume, high value, high profit portion of the global ceramic capacitor industry.

BENEFITS OF THE REPORT:

This report gives detailed intelligence data on the specialty segment of the global ceramic capacitor market, where operating margins are the highest and where price is secondary to component quality and performance. As the low picofarad MLCC markets become inundated with suppliers, companies with smaller economies of scale must refocus all or part of their product portfolio to address more profitable segments of the market. This new focus should include application specific ceramic capacitors to increase profit margins and delay the continued price erosion in their overall ceramic capacitor product offering, and to understand the competitive environment, demand by world region, pricing, technology, and opportunities through detailed forecasts to 2020.

This study analyzes the dynamic global market for high capacitance base metal electrode multilayered ceramic chip capacitors (MLCC). This study, which updates the 2000 and 2005 market studies of the same name, addresses the global market for MLCC with capacitance values from 2.2 microfarad to 330 microfarad for FY 2014. The study addresses the rapidly expanding value and volume of consumption for high capacitance BME MLCC and the raw materials consumed in its production. The detailed study addresses average unit pricing trends and directions; consumption by world region, production by country, consumption by end-use market segment, market shares and forecasts for consumption to 2019. The study also addresses the cost of goods sold for high capacitance MLCC as well as the supporting markets for ceramic dielectric materials, nickel electrode powders and pastes and copper termination powders, flakes and pastes. The study also offers a detailed technology roadmap for future developments in high capacitance BME MLCC that includes capacitor development, stacking abilities, nano-powder development in ceramic, nickel and copper, as well as long term forecasting for high capacitance BME MLCC materials consumption by type (Ceramic, nickel and copper); and for high capacitance BME MLCC by world region; MLCC and by end-use markets segment to 2019.

NOV 15, 2017 Chip Inductor Technology Comparison Finds that manufacturers of ceramic chip inductors are technologically advanced and on par with similarly designed components with respect to their physical case size/volumetric efficiency AND their thickness in mm; however, the true test of superior technology comes in the differences among vendors with respect to inductance per chip, operating frequency range and maximum rated current handling capabilities of individual chip components.
